“What You Should Know about EFT and Grief”

Thank you for you donation. It helps me to support you with these EFT Articles

Hi EFT Mindandbody Community:

Scroll down so you can tap with our EFT Video for Grief.

Of course you’ve heard that people handle their grief in different ways. For example it is normal to grieve the loss of a loved one. However, any change in life (positive or negative) will, at times, bring the emotion of grief to your heart.

Have you noticed yet that some people suffer grief after they have achieved a major goal in life? What about ending a part of their life and beginning a new one? The following are some of the symptoms of grief that a person might experience.

“The Grieving Process”

Denial

Anger

Bargaining

Depression

Acceptance

Some people experience initial shock, disbelief, emotional paralysis or guilt. Feel free to add your own emotional experience to the list.

Some of the stress factors that might contribute to grief and depression are:

Death of a spouse

Death of an immediate family member

Marriage

Divorce or separation

Divorce or separation of your parents

Moving to a different city

A new family member

A child who leaves the nest

Graduation

Loss of job

New job

Money problems

Buying or selling a house, etc. etc.

This is not a complete list, other stress factors might contribute to grief and depression.

While grieving about our losses and disappointments is a part of life there are times, when a person can get stuck in emotional overwhelm. This is the time, when you need to ask for help. You could join a support group to share your loss.

Here is a fact for you, EFT is effective to help you acknowledge the pain of what has happened to you and identify the current stress factors in your life. EFT is an amazing tool that you can use to eliminate the unresolved negative emotions caused by your loss so you can move forward with life.

We are including a tapping script and video to help you deal with grief…

Note: These videos and tapping scripts are generic in nature and not reflective of an actual EFT session with us. Our sessions are specifically designed for YOU, Your Own history, Your special Needs, Circumstances and Specific Events in Your Life. We help you neutralize the destructive emotions of anger, grief, self-doubt, fear, nervousness, lack of confidence, emotional pain or any other negative emotion, trauma or memory that robs you of your joy. Then you are imprinted with positive beliefs and emotions for permanent change and well-being. If you agree to follow this EFT Round, you are agreeing to take full responsibility for your own well-being. Further, these EFT phrases might trigger your own memories and emotions, write them down and then do EFT focusing on them, until you do not feel an emotional intensity. You deserve peace, so keep tapping.

SETTING THE INTENTION TO HEAL:

Tap 7 to 10 times on your karate chop point (side of hand) or on your favorite point and say:

I have the intention to release the sadness and grief from my heart.

When you think about your loss, what emotion do you feel? Where do you feel that emotion in your body?

EFT Tip: Even though I feel this sadness in my heart, I Accept that I am feeling this way (Tap on all the energy points) * Remember that your own case with grief is different and unique to you. If you need professional EFT Support, we are here to work with you and help you identify, address and eliminate the multiple aspects and issues that could be contributingto your problem with grief.

Rate the intensity of your emotion on a scale of 0-10 (SUDS Rating-Subjective Units of Distress)

10 meaning – your highest intensity (I feel terrible)

0 meaning – no intensity at all (I feel happy) * Remember to drink water before and during tapping

While rubbing the sore spot on your chest or tapping the karate chop point of either hand (7-10 times) Repeat the following EFT Phrases aloud:

EFT SET UP PHRASES

Even though there is no way out for me, I feel completely lost, I don’t know where to turn to. I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself

Even though I have lost so much and my mind feels numb, I cannot have a clear thought. I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself anyway

Even though I really feel this pain in my heart, I have lost so much, I just don’t know how I am going to be able to keep moving forward. I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself anyway

Even though this pain in my heart is so deep and there is no way that I can feel better. I deeply and profoundly love and accept myself anyway

Now tap on the following energy points while repeating your negative reminder phrases: If possible tap on both sides of the face and body. (Use 3 or 4 fingers of one hand to tap on the energy points)

Crown of head: I feel this tremendous pain in my heart

Beginning of eyebrow: I have lost so much

Side of eye: I feel NUMB

Under eye: My mind is paralyzed

Under nose: I cannot have a clear thought

Under mouth: I don’t feel like doing anything

Take a deep breath and release all this pain from your heart. Release it from your mind and body.

How do you feel?
